Electronic offline catalogs

Our module catalog2go is a native HTML5 application, which makes an offline use of your spare parts catalog possible: By using a suitable template, catalogs can be opened directly in the browser of all mobile devices as HTML, CSS and Java-Script files - including image material and hotspots. Functionality and layout correspond to the online version of the spare parts catalog.

Use digital parts catalogs offline

That´s how it works: A server-side process generates the data, resulting in a .zip file with all required data included. At the same time, a price level must be defined and one catalog can be generated for each price level. The resulting .zip file is then transferred to the tablet. As the result is based on a native HTML5 application, a browser is required. Image scaling is performed in the mobile browser directly, which may lead to different qualities depending on the provider and the operating system.

Limitations:

Normally, there are restrictions due to the offline usage of the catalog, which are mainly affecting dynamic processes (price display, discount calculations and availability information).
